The Burnaby Scottish Country Dance Club (BSCSC) was formed in 1972. The club has two qualified dancing teachers: Rosemary Coupe and Cathrine Conings. We host an annual dance in March, often with the live music of the Vancouver Fiddle Orchestra. Members also enjoy dancing at many Scottish country dance events held throughout the lower mainland. All members of the BSCDC also belong to the Vancouver Branch of the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society, a worldwide organization which provides essential resources, trains teachers and sets standards for this dance form.
The Burnaby Scottish Country Dance Club has an Entertainment Team that performs at community events, retirement homes and health care facilities, particularly in the January “Robbie Burns Season”.
